“Modifier Mix Up: Are Discontinued Procedures Feeling Like a Juggling Act?” Presentation by Jackie Craver at FHIMA Virtual Coding Education Day

There’s a time and a place for discounts! How are you applying CPT code modifiers for discontinued procedures? This modifier presentation will take an in-depth look at using modifiers 52, 53, 73, and 74 for professional fee and OPPS reimbursements. These modifiers, that seem so simple to use, come with a lot of guidelines and rules. Payments are affected based on selecting the correct modifier when a procedures is reduced, unsuccessful, or discontinued. Often times coders struggle with applying the correct modifier based on what took place in or out of the OR room.
